I am so grateful to be invited to teach at St. Michael’s School!  This is my 43rd year in Education and my 16th year in Catholic Education, having taught previously at St. Josaphat School in Carrollton and at All Saints Catholic Middle/High School in Bay City.  I have various teaching experiences in inner city and rural settings.  I taught in the largest elementary school in Texas (1,200 students on a K-5 campus).  I taught for 4 years in Arlington, Texas which was rated 3rd best in the nation by the National Education Association during my tenure there.  While I have enjoyed all my teaching experiences, I look forward to experiencing life with the students, faculty, and staff of St. Michael’s School. 

Mrs. Stanolis graduated from Kansas State University with her bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education in 1981.  She also has a Gifted/Talented Education endorsement from Baylor University in Waco, Texas.  She and her husband, Joe are nationally certified Youth Ministers and served in this capacity at St. Maria Goretti Parish in Bay City for 13 years
